Sessions Tool Window

This tool window lists all currently running sessions and provides sessions management.

For each session, the following information is displayed:

Source: Device type (Serial, USB or Network) and remote computer name. If device is local, only device type is displayed.
Type: Device category, like “Human Interface Devices”.
Device: The name of the device this session monitors. For multisource sessions, a list of names is displayed.
Processing: A current list of processing modules configured for this session.
Start: Session start time.
Length: Session running time.
State: Depends on the specific data processing module. For example, for data recording, the total number of recorded bytes as well as commands to end current stream and start new stream are present.

The window has a following list of commands:

Configure Session…: Opens the Session Configuration window that allows you to change the session parameters (including Capture Filter) and add or remove data processing modules.
